Description

Beleuchtungsvorrichtung für Schiffs- und Luftfahrzeugapparaturen und Navigationskarten mit phosphoreszierenden feinen Teilungen und Zeichen Zum Sichtbarmachen im Dunkeln hat man bereits die Teilungen und Aufschriften von Instrumenten mit phosphoreszierenden Stoffen aufgetragen, die durch Einwirkung unsichtbarer Strahlen zum Leuchten gebracht werden. Da die Leuchtkraft dieser Stoffe bekanntlich nur schwach ist, müssen alle sichtbaren Strahlen nach Möglichkeit ausgeschaltet werden.Lighting device for ship and aircraft equipment and Navigation maps with phosphorescent fine divisions and symbols to make them visible in the dark one already has the divisions and inscriptions of instruments with phosphorescent Materials applied that made them shine through the action of invisible rays will. Since the luminosity of these substances is known to be weak, everyone must visible rays are switched off if possible.

Anderseits ist darauf Wert zu legen, daß die in der Umgebung ider Instrumente befindlichen Gegenstände zu erkennen sind. Um dies unter Vermeidung störender Lichtwirkur_gen zu erreichen, wird eine Beleuchtung mit rotvioletten oder andern sichtbaren Strahlen verwendet, die die Empfindlichkeit der Netzhaut wenig beeinträchtigen.On the other hand, it is important to ensure that those in the area are ider Objects located in the instruments can be recognized. To avoid this To achieve more disturbing light effects, lighting with red-violet or other visible rays are used, which reduce the sensitivity of the retina little affect.

Die einwandfree Beleuchtung der Teilungen usw. bei gleichzeitiger genügender Sichtbarmachung der umgebenden Gegenstände wird erfindungsgemäß gesichert durch die Anwendung einer Lichtquelle, die sowohl unsichtbare Strahlen der ultravioletten Zone des Spektrums als auch solche sichtbaren, insbesondere rotviolette Strahlen aussendet, die die Empfindlichkeit der Netzhaut nicht beeinträchtigen.The perfect lighting of the divisions, etc. at the same time Sufficient visualization of the surrounding objects is ensured according to the invention by applying a light source that has both invisible rays of the ultraviolet Zone of the spectrum as well as those visible, especially red-violet rays emits that do not affect the sensitivity of the retina.

Von besonderer Bedeutung ist die Erfindung für die Beleuchtung von Führer- und Beobachterständen von Wasser- und Luftfahrzeugen, bei denen der Führer bzw. Beobachter die Möglichkeit haben muß, nicht nur die Instrumente, wie den Isompaß, Höh°iiinesser, Tourenzähler, Befehlsübermittler u. dgl., zu beobachten, sondern auch die ihn umgebenden Gegenstände zu sehen. Für Navigationsinstrumente sind bis jetzt nur selbstleuchtende Anstriche verwendet worden, die man bei Tage stark mit Sonnenlicht bestrahlen läßt, um sie für die .Yacht selbstleuchtend zu machen. Hierbei mußte man jedoch wegen des schwachen Leuchtvermögens breite Striche verwenden, so daß keine genügend feine Teilung und demgemäß kein genügend genaues Ablesen möglich war. Außerdem hielt die Leuchtfähigkeit nicht die ganze Nacht vor; man mußte daher während der Nacht wiederholt eine Auffrischung durch Bestrahlen mit künstlichem weißem Intensivlicht vornehmen, wodurch nicht nur während der Bestrahlung der Betrieb, sondern auch für längere Zeit nachher die Empfindlichkeit der Netzhaut des Beobachters gestört wurde. Für dieses besondere Anwendungsgebiet stellt somit die Bestrahlung der Instrumente mit unsichtbaren Strahlen, die die Anstrichmasse zum Leuchten bringen, eine Neuerung von erheblicher Bedeutung dar.The invention is of particular importance for the lighting of Driver's and observer's stands for watercraft and aircraft, where the driver or observer must have the opportunity to not only use the instruments, such as the Isompass, Höh ° iiinesser, tour counter, command transmitter and the like, to be observed, but rather also to see the objects surrounding him. For navigational instruments are up now only luminescent paints have been used, which you can use heavily during the day Can be irradiated by sunlight to make them self-luminous for the yacht. Here but if you had to use broad lines because of the weak luminosity, see above that no sufficiently fine graduation and accordingly no sufficiently accurate reading is possible was. Besides, the luminosity didn't last all night; one therefore had to refreshing by irradiating artificial ones repeatedly during the night make white intensive light, which means that not only during the irradiation the operation, but also for a long time afterwards the sensitivity of the observer's retina was disturbed. For this special application area, the irradiation is therefore the instruments with invisible rays that make the paint glow, an innovation of considerable importance.

Zur Ausführung der Erfindung wird eine elektrische Lampe mit spiralig aufgerolltem Metallfaden in einer Gasatmosphäre und mit einer Birne oder einem Schirm aus Woodschein Glas (Natriumsilikatglas mit etwa io bis 12 % Nickeloxyd und etwa i q. bis 16 0;o Zinkoxyd) verwendet. Wird diese Lampe mit Überspannung betrieben, so sendet sie reichlich ultraviolette Strahlen aus, die durch das Woodsche Glas hindurchgehen, das anderseits die die Empfindlichkeit der Netzhaut beeinträchtigenden Strahlen absorbiert.To carry out the invention, an electric lamp with a spirally rolled-up metal thread in a gas atmosphere and with a bulb or a shade made of Woodschein glass (sodium silicate glass with about 10 to 12% nickel oxide and about 1 to 1 6 % zinc oxide) is used. When this lamp is operated with overvoltage, it emits abundant ultraviolet rays which pass through Wood's glass, which on the other hand absorbs the rays which impair the sensitivity of the retina.

Die dauernde Beleuchtung regt das Leuchtvermögen der phosphoreszierenden Salze kräftig an, wodurch Apparate mit Teilungen in Gestalt feiner Striche überhaupt erst verwendbar werden. Diese Beleuchtung bringt auch fluoreszierende Substanzen verschiedener Färbung zum Leuchten. Man ist daher in der Lage, die Aufschriften und Teilestriche verschiedenfarbig, z. B. grün, rot, ;gelb usw., herzustellen, was für Kompaßrosen und Navigationskarten von erheblichem Vorteil ist.The constant lighting stimulates the luminosity of the phosphorescent ones Salt vigorously, making devices with divisions in the form of fine lines at all can only be used. This lighting also brings fluorescent substances different color to glow. One is therefore able to read the inscriptions and partial lines of different colors, e.g. B. green, red,; yellow, etc., to produce what for compass roses and navigation maps is of considerable advantage.

Die nicht blendende Beleuchtung kann auch zur Beleuchtung der Kompaßrose allein benutzt werden. Zu diesem Zwecke stellt man den Gehäuseboden der Rose aus Woodschem Glas her und bringt unter ihm die als Lichtquelle dienende Lampe an, .die in seine lichtdichte Laterne eingesetzt wird. Die Rose selbst wird aus durchsichtigem Material gefertigt, und die feinen Teilstriche Ihrer Oberfläcne werden mit phosphoreszierenden oder fluoreszierenden Salzen hergestellt.The non-dazzling lighting can also be used alone to illuminate the compass rose. For this purpose, the case back of the rose is made of Wood's glass and the lamp serving as a light source is placed underneath it, which is inserted into his light-tight lantern. The rose itself is made of transparent material, and the fine graduation marks on its surface are made with phosphorescent or fluorescent salts.

"Ferner können mit einer Vorrichtung ge. mäß der Erfindung auch Navigationskarten beleuchtet werden. Zu diesem Zwecke wird die Karte, deren Angaben mit phosphoreszierenden oder fluoreszienenden Salzen aufgetragen sind, mittels einer Intensivlampe beleuchtet, die mit einem Schirm aus Woodschem Glas versehen ist. Diese Lampe wird entweder über oder unter der Karte, angeordnet."Furthermore, with a device according to the invention, navigation maps be illuminated. For this purpose, the card whose information is phosphorescent or fluorescent salts are applied, illuminated by an intensive lamp, which is provided with a shade made of Wood's glass. This lamp will either above or below the map.
